Guitar stand

From an idea from Paul, the custom guitar stand allows bass or guitar to be played upright! Ideal for bass guitars this is a nifty addition to your stage equipment and if you have more instruments active than you can sensibly hang around your neck! So the prototype was just a simple short stake to fit in a floor shoe to allow you to play the bass upright. Below is a guild bass set up to use this shoe.
The next version is the full stand where the guitar or bass is
connected via the strap button fixture with an extra pair of screws
I should say that the end of the body is actually fitted with a metal
plate that allows the stand to be connected with some metal /
machine screws which makes it a little easier to work with.

The stand itself is actually a simple three legged mic stand with
the main shaft cut down and a flat metal plate attached. A set of
height adjustment points allows the playing point to be moved for
various players.
